Loved the easy online check in and out. The room was clean and the bed comfortably. The only knock is the overnight trains you’ll hear when sleeping.

Muh hotel The room that we were assigned was not cleaned. Bed was unmade and there were towels on the floor. We got a new room which was better. Also, our code was not sent to us for the door, we had to call to get it. It was an ok stay.

Bed spread was not clean. If you dont want to wash them, dont use white!! Walls are paper thin, enjoy everyone's business! Not worth the rate.

Had the family suite. Room clean. TVs are humongous. WiFi is super fast. Love the common area, where you can get ice and refill your water bottles with filtered water. Staff is friendly and very helpful.

Way overpriced for the experience For some reason we did not all of our check in information. We didn’t know what room we were in or a code to get in. We arrived late so I was relived when someone answered my call. She provided our room number and the code to get in. The code didn’t work after several attempts. Thankfully we were able to get in after a few minutes do texting back and forth. The rooms are just a place to sleep, nothing more. The bathroom is very small with a sink that’s barely big enough to wash your hands without making a huge mess. The shower was spacious and decent. The beds were comfortable. There was no trash can in our room and it was not very well cleaned with lots of dirt and dust along the baseboards and edges of the floors. Because there were no additional mirrors to get ready, we tried to use the restrooms in the Main Office, but found it locked and were not given a code. My biggest complaint was how much it cost for a very bare bones experience. The beds were comfortable. That’s the best thing I can say.

It was a nice place aesthetically but looking closer past the nice looks, I found a few bugs and the fridge smelt rlly bad, also the shower didn’t work great and the body wash was practically water it didn’t lather at all. The bed was hard. Other than those things the tv was super nice and the pillows were soft.
